N2  - OBJECTIVE: Identify the causes of hospital care for adolescents in urgency and emergency services between the years 2005 and 2014. Data sources: The integrative review was conducted in 2014, using as data sources the Capes/MEC Portal of Periodicals, LILACS (Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences), MEDLINE (Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online) and BDENF (Nursing Database), using the Health Science Descriptors "adolescent" and "emergencies" with the boolean operated AND. We tried to answer the following guiding question: What are the causes of the hospital attendance of the adolescent public in the urgency and emergency sector? The inclusion criteria that guided the search were: complete studies available; written in English, Spanish or Portuguese; format of the document in article, thesis or dissertation; published between the years 2005 and 2014; study participants composed of 50% or more of adolescents; and contain in the results the answer to the guiding question. The exclusion criterion were studies that were not consistent with the objective of the integrative review. Data Synthesis: 18 studies were found, which identified external causes as the main reasons for attending adolescents related to traffic accidents, violence, suicide attempt and injuries during leisure and sports practices. <br><br>CONCLUSION: The main causes of care are due to avoidable causes, which can be combated with socio-educational public policy measures, focusing on health promotion practices and disease prevention. © 2017, Nucleo de Estudos da Saude do Adolescente.
